Software Engineer - Robotics (Motion)

Job description

Company Overview ACS (Allen Control Systems) is a defense technology company building precision robotic systems for the United States and its allies. Founded by two former U.S. Navy electrical engineers with deep experience in robotics and software, ACS brings together AI, computer vision, precision motion, and advanced hardware to solve complex defense challenges across land, air, and maritime environments.

Our flagship product, Bullfrog, is an autonomous precision weapon system that transforms existing weapons into highly accurate counter-drone systems — giving warfighters a scalable, cost-effective response to one of the fastest-growing threats on the modern battlefield.

Job responsibilities

Control robot motion to track drones under tight real-time constraints.
Develop and tune real-time control loops for accurate, stable pointing.
Own calibration routines and coordinate-frame transforms across the sensor/actuator chain.
Define and negotiate a robust software/hardware contract at the actuation handoff, minimizing rework.
Enforce safety constraints on motion (limits, no-fire zones, fault handling) as a first-class design concern.

Job requirements
